kell brook is the #1 contender for pacquiao's 147 wbo title.

Brook vs Matt Hatton

[jameshepenstall]

lol if the wbo tries to force a mandatory on him.

That would be funny, Brook wouldnt last 2 rounds with Pac.

Kell Brook vs Saul Alvarez in early 2011!

alvarez is already better than brook at 19 y/o. assuming saul doesnt regress or buy into his own hype, he crushes kell.

Yeah but he's Ginger, so....

Yeah but he's Ginger, so....

So what?

To Siggy- I just think Kell has to grow a fanbase so if he stays active
and keeps winning, By early next year it could eventually turn into a
big fight. Saul also has to remain active this year and beat a top ten WW
at least so people in the US could also know about him. Other than that,
These two guys are the next generation for big money fights.

...so he is a soul-less killer from the gates of hell.

I've yet to even see this dude fight, for the amount I hear about him on these forums he better be for real.

The plan is that everyone's more interested in Brook and all the hype surrounding him, then bam - Gavin comes out of nowhere.

i recognize that kell has a lot of raw talent, but i already see a lot of serious flaws in his game.
i dont think he'll ever reach his true potential under his current trainer. his defense is pretty terrible and the switch hitting isnt effective.

maybe they'll become money fighters becuz of who's backing them (i have fewer reservations about alvarez), but i'd put a lot of JWWs (with the potential to move up) and WW prospects ahead of brook in terms of potential and skill.

He's not getting within dreaming distance of a Pac fight.
